Install a dummy printer or a second instance then you can change the default
to the dummy to kid PSP and then change back. Seams to work for some folk

Hi again... Well I tried your suggestion, but program was too smart for me.
It saw through my transparent attempt at sleight-of-hand. Bested by a piece
of software. Oh, what has man/woman kind become.

Perhaps I'll try it again with the program open this time.

(In PSPX, I had laboriously placed two 5.5"x8.5" graphics on the landscape
8.5"x11.0" page, saved it with images, after printing one copy at a time to
verify that it was aligned properly. Then being satisfied, I changed the
number of pages I wanted printed to 10, clicked OK, and the images were
suddenly flipped to portrait mode while the page was still in landscape
mode. *shakes head with very little hair left*

After fiddling with closing and re-opening the Print Layout applet loading
the file a number of times with the same lopsided result, I finally tried
making the page portrait, loaded the saved file and it turned the page to
landscape and placed the images corectly! LOL!

So much for PSPX. I'm sure its a very nice program, but I'm going back to
making fire by rubbing sticks together, thanks. lol

Thanks for trying your best to help me. It is good to know that this ng is
here, as well as the ones at Corel. Again, thanks!

Win Xp has a print wizard called from the fax and print viewer. This does
multiple prints on a page too.

Psst dont read this out loud, but it does a very good job of
Interpolarising pixels. As I discovered when printing the low res image
that I had saved for the web at 10 x 8 inch's instead of the 240ppi 10 x 8
that I had meant to print
